Stone and Shrine Circle
“Stone and Shrine circle” is a landmark square located on Yim Tin Tze . It is an artistic installation that combines the Catholic faith of the island residents with the cultural heritage of the Hakka people, symbolizing a bridge connecting heaven and earth.
Based on the concept of ”heaven and earth in harmony,“ the installation features a square opening at the top, designed to absorb sunlight and collect rainwater to nourish the land. The main structure consists of four pillars representing the four seasons of the year. The outer perimeter is composed of 12 foundation stones, symbolizing the zodiac signs, months, hours, and disciples, representing the harmony between heaven, earth, and humanity, and the eternal pursuit of spiritual significance.
During the art festival, we organize stone stacking workshops, inviting participants to place small stones on the 12 foundation stones. Through the process of stacking stones, participants can experience the stability and balance of the stones and incorporate this feeling into their daily lives. We hope that everyone who visits can not only appreciate the natural landscape but also reflect on themselves, seek inner peace and harmony, and engage in spiritual practice, bringing them closer to the divine.
